Masters Of War by Bob Dylan

Come, you masters of war
You (1)________ build the big guns
You that build the death planes
You that build all the bombs
You that (2)________ behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just-a (3)________ you to know
I can see through your masks

You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You (4)________ with my world
Like it's your (5)____________ toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you (6)________ (7)________ my eyes
And you turn and run farther when the fast bullets fly

Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the (8)__________ that (9)________ down my drain

You fasten all the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you set (10)________ and watch
While the death count gets higher
You hide in (11)________ mansion
While young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies and is (12)____________ in the mud

You've thrown the (13)__________ fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world
For threatenin' my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood that (14)________ in your veins

How (15)________ do I know
A-to talk out of turn?
You (16)__________ say that I'm young
You might say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know
Though I'm (17)______________ than you
That even Jesus would never forgive what you do

Let me ask you one question
Is (18)________ money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness?
Do you think (19)________ it could?
An' I think you (20)________ find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you (21)________ will never buy back (22)________ soul

An' I hope (23)________ you die
And your (24)__________ (25)________ come soon
I'll follow (26)________ casket
On a pale afternoon
And I'll (27)__________ while you're lowered
Down to your death bed
And I'll stand over your grave till I'm (28)________ that you're dead
